Lol, Bill, no one said ICRA tag is perfect -- then again, what is? The question is what better alternative do we have in our little box of tools to keep kids off our sites?
When faced with a choice between two evils -- A. an imperfect solution that keeps X% of minors off my sites and B. Doing nothing about the problem because I don't like my options --- I'd have to go with A, the lesser of two evils.

One advantage of creating a .css file is it doesn't load every time you visit a new page on the same domain. For free sites, one css file will cover multiple pages in one folder; for bigger sites, one css file will take care of an entire domain.

Alex, all you need to do is generate one catch-all ICRA file/tag and install it on your domain root. There's no need to visit ICRA 200+ times to generate a unique tag for every domain / subfolder you own.
I do agree that labels.rdf file is way bigger than it has to be. I'd also like to see things like "ass slamming" in the tag instead of "Erections/explicit sexual acts", but then I'd have to tag every page on my site with a unique tag, which would be a serious pain in the ass.
